Does it support library-specific optimizations like NumPy?

Absolutely. It includes optimization patterns specifically designed for vectorization in NumPy and handling large datasets efficiently.

Which profiling tools does this skill support?

This skill utilizes cProfile for CPU analysis, memory_profiler for memory tracking, and py-spy for production-level profiling.

Can this skill help reduce Python memory usage?

Yes, it includes specific modules for memory management that use tracemalloc to identify leaks and suggest more efficient data structures.

How does Claude verify that the optimizations actually work?

The skill includes a benchmark suite that uses timeit and custom decorators to measure execution time before and after changes are applied.

Profiles and optimizes Python code to identify bottlenecks, reduce latency, and minimize memory consumption using industry-standard tools.

关于

The python-performance skill provides Claude with a comprehensive toolkit for analyzing and accelerating Python applications. By leveraging profilers like cProfile and specialized memory analyzers, it identifies exactly where code is slowing down or consuming excessive resources. The skill applies proven optimization patterns—ranging from algorithmic improvements and caching to NumPy integration and efficient memory management—to transform sluggish scripts into high-performance systems. It is an essential resource for developers needing to meet strict latency requirements or scale resource-intensive Python workloads.
